In Lewis Cubitt Park, King's Cross, you will discover this intriguing piece of public art.
At first I thought it was something that children could climb, with its bright colours and angled poles. But, on closer inspection, I realised that it was near impossible to climb. So, what is it?
It is actually a public sculpture, designed by Eva Rothschild.
Entitled 'My World and Your World' is Eva Rothschild's first permanent commission in London.
Standing 16 m (52 ft) tall and crafted from steel. The bold colours of black, green, orange, pink, purple and red break up its shape, which is inspired by the natural world. It resembles the branches of a tree, but it also could be a lightning strike or the tributary of a river.
Eva describes the piece as a 'social sculpture', enticing people to explore the park, in which it stands.
